So, the \u201cexposed  data\u201d to the web are the informations which would be accessible for all  users when using the Notes client. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The exposed data itself are hashed and salted, so even if the password hashes are reachable this does not mean that this is directly a security nightmare &#8211; you should not sleep well, but it is enough time to fix this in the next days. I don&#8217;t want to play it down, but the CVE is from 2016 and does not contain an exploit to extract the passwords from the hashes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more details, Ben has written a very informational post on passwords and hashes: <a href=\"http:\/\/techlab.ytria.com\/6047\/lotus-notes-articles\/deep-dive-domino-security-part-1-understanding-ibm-domino-password-hashes\/\">Deep Dive into IBM Domino Security Part 1: Password Hashes<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, you can use xACL for protecting these sensitiv data.
